Matthew 14:22-31, Reimagined

Jesus sent his disciples across the Sea of Galilee in a boat. But soon the wind and waves began battering the craft.

A short time later, Jesus, walking on the water went out to their vessel. The sight scared them.

“It’s a ghost,” they agreed.

“Don’t be afraid, it’s me,”Jesus responded.

“If it’s you,” Peter challenged, “tell me to come to you!”

“Come,” Jesus said.

Peter got out of the boat, but after a few steps began to sink.

“Save me!” Peter cried.

Jesus reached out and caught Peter’s hand, “How many times have I told you not to run?”
